Safety features of your vehicle
WARNING - Tether strap
Never mount more than one
child restraint to a single tether
anchor or to a single lower
anchorage point. The increased
load caused by multiple seats
may cause the tethers or
anchorage points to break,
causing serious injury or death.
WARNING
A child can be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the
child restraint is not properly
anchored to the car and the
child is not properly restrained
in the child restraint. Always fol-
low the child seat manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation
and use.
WARNING
When using the vehicle's "Tether Anchor" system to
install a child restraint system
in the rear seat, all unused
vehicle rear seat belt metal
latch plates or tabs must be
latched securely in their seat
belt buckles and the seat belt
webbing must be retracted
behind the child restraint to
prevent the child from reaching
and taking hold of unretracted
seat belts. Unlatched metal
latch plates or tabs may allow
the child to reach the unretract-
ed seat belts which may result
in strangulation and a serious
injury or death to the child in
the child restraint.
Do not place anything around the lower anchors. Also make
sure that the seat belt is not
caught in the lower anchors.
WARNING - Child restraint
check
Check that the child restraint
system is secure by pushing
and pulling it in different direc-
tions. Incorrectly fitted child
restraints may swing, twist, tip
or separate causing death or
serious injury.

Securing a child restraint seat
with child seat lower anchor sys-tem
Some child seat manufacturers
make child restraint seats that are
labeled as LATCH or LATCH-com-
patible child restraint seats. LATCH
stands for "Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children". These seats
include two rigid or webbing mount-
ed attachments that connect to two
LATCH anchors at specific seating
positions in your vehicle. This type of
child restraint seat eliminates the
need to use seat belts to attach the
child seat in the rear seats. Child restraint symbols are located
on the outboard left and right rear
seat backs to indicate the position of
the lower anchors for child restraints.

WARNING- Child
restraint anchorage
Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand
only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used
for adult seat belts or har-
nesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the
vehicle.
The tether strap may not work properly if attached some-
where other than the correct
tether anchor.
WARNING - Unused rear
seatbelts
Always fasten the seatbelts
behind the child restraint seat
when they are not used to
secure the child seat. Failure to
do so may result in child stran-
gulation.

LATCH anchors have been provided
in your vehicle. The LATCH anchors
are located in the left and right out-
board rear seating positions. Their
locations are shown in the illustration.
There is no LATCH anchor provided
for the center rear seating position.
The LATCH anchors are located
between the seatback and the seat
cushion of the rear seat left and right
outboard seating positions.
Follow the child seat manufacturer’s
instructions to properly install child
restraint seats with LATCH or
LATCH-compatible attachments.
Once you have installed the LATCH
child restraint, assure that the seat is
properly attached to the LATCH and
tether anchors.Also, test the child restraint seat
before you place the child in it. Tilt
the seat from side to side. Also try to
tug the seat forward. Check to see if
the anchors hold the seat in place.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The recommended weight for the
LATCH system is under 65lb (30 kg).
How to calculate the child restraint
weight :
Child restraint weight =
65lb (30 kg) - Child weightWARNING
If the child restraint is not
anchored properly, the risk of a
child being seriously injured or
killed in a collision greatly
increases.
WARNING - LATCH lower
anchors
LATCH lower anchors are only
to be used with the left and right
rear outboard seating positions.
Never attempt to attach a LATCH
equipped seat in the center
seating position. You may dam-
age the anchors or the anchors
may fail and break in a collision.
CAUTION
Do not allow the rear seat belt webbing to get scratched orpinched by the child-seat latchand LATCH anchor during theinstallation.
WARNING
Do not place anything around
the lower anchors. Also make

when installing ANY floor mat
to the vehicle, so that it will not
interfere with the pedal.
Ensure that the floor mats are
securely attached to the vehi-
cle’s floor mat anchor(s)
before driving the vehicle.
Do not use ANY floor mat that cannot be firmly attached to
the vehicle’s floor mat anchors.
